They told me that a mask and gloves were enough to go to the supermarket. Turns out they lied, everyone else has clothes on.

I'm still stuck at home:
1. I cannot go out in public without a mask.
2. I cannot get a mask without going out.

simple: use a pair of panties and some string or ribbon to tie them on.
hard part is deciding which one wont be missed from the collection.

Not too much information, but rather the wrong information.
I want to know how he did it!

I sometimes have this weird issue where I get a new mail and the email app thinks it's part of some email conversation.
I just got a CodeProject newsletter and the app thought this was the followup to some email I sent in 2011, to someone who is not on CP or, for as far as I know even heard of CP.
It's a bit annoying, I even accidentally deleted that mail from 2011 while I shouldn't have seen it at all.
Really makes you wonder what Google does to my emails and what weird algorithm thinks "let's go back to 2011 and see if I can find something to match with this new email"

Well, I know they read my emails, make a detailed profile of me and then send me targeted ads.
But I'm interested in the weirder, unspeakable things they do with my data...

ML, if you please, it's clearly not intelligent
The ML needs some work too if this is what they come up with

Bash MS all you like, but their development tooling is much easier easier to use than most.
Recently I wanted to test something in Java, so I downloaded a JDK and Eclipse. It's a lot less intuitive to use (for a beginner?) than Visual Studio and I didn't didn't it easy to use at all. I finally tried IntelliJ - it's better and I got the code sample working. Still not on the same level as VS. MS has made the development experience easier than most other companies imo.

When MS get it right, they get it very, very right - and everyone else in the field should learn from them and improve. And Visual Studio has been very, very right for a couple of decades now.
Trouble is they tend to not know when "it's right" and try "gilding the lily": generally they make it worse, not better. Remember the Ribbon? So wonderful that "we'll put it everywhere!" - except even their own devs said "not on this one, pal."
I just wish they would stop adding "features" and fix some of the older, more annoying bugs ...

Well, you have to keep releasing new versions to make more money
I think there is also a culture in software development that you always have to have new versions with more and better features, when sometimes that isn't necessary. Like you said, it happens that products get worse by 'overdoing' it.

They would make waaaay more money with "stability releases" or "really hearing devs releases" than with "new buzzword bingo releases"

I fight this all the time, especially with web (ASP.Net) development. If I had my druthers, I'd keep it all at .NET 4.0 using only native components. I still prefer VS 2010 over the newer versions mostly since it seems faster for builds/debugging.
Lately, I've been forced to upgrade due to a slew of widgets we bought a couple of years ago, mostly for the reporting tools...but they only work on .net 4.6 and better. It's not uncommon at all for me to have VS 6, VS 2010, 2017, and 2019 all running at the same time.
